The color of what is real /// short outfit post

Ahh the month is almost over and I still have some outfit photos left I wanted to post!

I didn't really put a lot of effort into dressing these past days. I was at work most of the time so I didn't bother to wear "nice" clothes or make up. Most of the time I'm just extremely tired lately. I could sleep all day long and still be tired. I tried to do more sports again, but it just doesn't really help. my sleep-wake rhythm is totally messed up and even if I get to bed early I can't fall asleep before 2am or so. When I get up the next morning and make it through the day like a zombie, I feel incredibly tired. At work I have a hard time concentrating. And when I get home in the evening, I sometimes just fall alseep on the sofa at 5pm or so, and wake up an hour or two later, and of course then I'm restless until it's 2am again. It's really fucked up, but I just hope it's that passing "springtime tiredness" that people talk so much about. I never had that before, but I suppose it could have to do with it.

Anyway, here's an outfit I wore before I got possessed by some lazy sloth or koala spirit:

Boooring!

I didn't wear red lips in a looong time, generally I'm shy when it comes to bold lip colors, but I felt okay with it that day somehow.

I also tried to experiment with the Dodge and Burn tools of Photoshop a bit. I think editing photos is a lot of fun and I really want to get better at it. Here, I just wanted to emphasize the colors of the flower and the lips, and while I'm naturally quite pale I think it's fun to play a bit in photoshop to make the effect even stronger.

Another outfit I wore for a party last week end! I don't go "partying" often, but this time I was invited by a friend for her graduation party. Not the official ceremony but the "after-ceremony party" so to say. I had absolutely no idea what to wear and didn't even know the veneue (we have some rather... well let's say some clubs and such in Vienna are a bit strict if they don't like the way you look like they just won't let you in, and I have absolutely no experience with that kind of thing) but I was a bit afraid of being underdressed. I ended up choosing a black mini skirt, and all time classif. In the end I was almost overdressed, haha. but it was okay.

The photo quality is abysmally bad, because I left when it was dark already and I just don't have good light for photos in any room, and my camera's flash makes me look horrible. Anyhow. Sorry for the lack of quality.

I really wish I could post better pictures... do you have any advice for taking outfit photos at night? Do you just use your flash or do you have extra lamps or something?
